Contractors from Sea Engineering and Frank Coluccio Construction began preparation work to remove the temporary bypass pipe under the Kalakaua Bridge on Friday. The 42" pipe was installed seven years ago after a sewer main break flooded the Ala Wai Canal with waste. Pictured on the vessel platform was the support crew for a commercial diver who was tethering and securing the bypass pipe.
